Nice game! It has some challenge to it and depth with the different layers the mole can go on -- though I do wish the upper layer had more to do on it, aside from sporting a fancy new car. Also, it is a bit too easy to run into the sleeping area of a fox, grab a coin, and slip out without repercussions.
Really fun and interesting game. Blood-fueled cars is an interesting concept, and I like the incentive to crash other cars to fuel your own. Also, I love the mouth noises used to create the sound effects (at least, I assume so). Nice entry!
Nice game concept. Switching characters could add a lot of mechanical complexity to the game, but I feel it would be better if each character had different traits and required working together to solve a puzzle.
Simplistic and fun. I would recommend making the bubble more responsive and having a smaller maximum velocity, though, because it takes a while to start the bubble moving and controlling it is difficult.
Very cool game and fun to manipulate with the physics of the engine. On one level, I couldn't quite figure out what to do, so I used the buck to slowly guide coins that were coming out in the wrong direction into the direction of the bag. The animations are quite fluid, and I love the background noise from the coin materials. One gripe, though: I see no disadvantage to implementing a pull feature: it would eliminate having to restart if one of the parts ends up in an unmovable position and would make things much easier. But I understand the time limit in the jam is a factor.
Pretty fun multitasking game. Nothing is ever completely fixed, so you are constantly rushing around to attend to this and that. It creates an engrossing sense of urgency, but it becomes repetitive after a short while. The music is quite something, too. My final score was 1164.
Really like the concept, but it suffers from poor implementation in some places. Controlling your weight is a good idea, but it is cumbersome to have to continually jump to get rid of it. Also, since landing gets rid of your weight, it is difficult to keep consistent if you need to have a certain weight to press a switch. Aside from this, there are many bugs in the game that could use fixing. This could turn into a very neat game, though, with the proper adjustments.
Very impressive! The snake mechanic has a lot of complexity to it, resulting in some genuinely difficult puzzles.
Nice game, but can be a bit repetitive and there is little incentive to take risks with the amount of life that you bet. The music is nice and simple, and the animations are good, as well as the connections to the theme. Can be seen as commentary on the effects of real world gambling.
It's a nice concept, but it could use some work to be a bit better. For example, enemies could be made a little more forgiving and the game could use a bit more polish in telling the player what they can jump on and need to avoid. The graphics are nice, though, and the animation is fluid. Control is not bad, either.
A fun game with a surprising amount of content to it for a weekend project. Also, the number of music tracks in the game is surprising, and I love the "one, two, three, four" in each of them. The shooting mechanic can feel a bit slow at times, however, and the final area is a bit too difficult. Otherwise, the game is great and surprisingly fleshed out.
A nice game that feels good to play, though it lacks a bit of complexity. It would be nice if there were enemies or coins to collect, making the decision of where to create a platform more complex. Theming and graphics are both good. Nice job!
A nice, simple, fun to play game. It controls well and is simple to understand, but it could be communicated better that a 40 coin minimum is required to jump walls. Nice job!

Snow Dude! by Zliebowitz 2022-04-06T03:02:17Z ♥ 2
Great game! I made it to the level where you had to make jumps off the bouncy pads through a narrow path in between the fire, but wasn't able to beat it. The music is great and the snowball feels great to control. I like how you ease players into harder stuff slowly - the difficulty curve is very gradual and well done. There are also an impressive number of levels!
Simple Harmonic Motion Game by Escapade 2022-04-05T16:46:04Z ♥ 1
Nice game! It's fun to play and the ball moves satisfyingly. I do think that the harmonic motion of the ball could be used more as a core mechanic though, as it seems like the goal is to get it to move as straight as possible rather than have it bounce (so it won't hit obstacles). Maybe there could be enemies you would have to swing your ball forcefully at to kill. Just some thoughts on how it could be improved
Male Pattern Boldness by Choo 2022-04-05T16:37:51Z ♥ 1
Haha, great entry! Music and sound design is great, it's bursting with humor, and the gameplay is simple and fun. Controls can be a bit hard to get used to at first but can be mastered with time. It fits the theme very well.
Wrath of the Sun God by Skript-Kitty 2022-04-05T00:09:07Z ♥ 1
Wow, this is really well done! Very intuitive and fun to play and the player controls very well. The level of polish on the game is very high.
Caveman Bob and the Inevitable Dawn by Elias Newton 2022-04-04T23:44:28Z ♥ 1
Fun game and well executed. Art is great. Would be neat if you could grab powerups to become more efficient at dealing with the mosquitoes.
Bomb Game by BoilingFusion 2022-04-04T22:48:27Z ♥ 1
I like the concept of delaying the explosion of the bomb by extending its fuse. Could be cool to have to loop the rope around powerups that will slow down the flame at the end, maybe introduce enemies that light the rope closer to the bomb.
Dig Dig Joy by Nyunesu 2022-04-04T22:42:05Z ♥ 0
This was fun. I like the burst of energy you get at the start of a run, it really helps you get back into the action quickly. Would be cool if sound effects were added
Helly Belly by lootgrounds 2022-04-04T22:33:17Z ♥ 1
Nice job! This is a quality submission and very fun to play. I like the physics of the incoming 'jelly' and it feels very satisfying to grab a powerup and reset it to its initial position.
Run Run Granny! by Hartvichio 2022-04-04T22:26:25Z ♥ 3
Hahaha, I love the concept of the game and it's fun to play as well. I think it could benefit from having an intro screen or something before it starts, as it is a bit abrupt.
Delay Dragon by dindotjs 2022-04-04T22:18:08Z ♥ 1
Nice platformer. Graphics are great as well as sound design. I feel that the flaws of the game have been highlighted by others already, but it's easy to pick up and play. Nice job!
Fifty Dollar Smash by Benjamin Gare 2022-04-04T17:19:37Z ♥ 1
Nice game! I got to 480 points. Gameplay is really fun and I like the audio feedback you get when picking up upgrades or killing enemies. Could be cool if enemies spawned from all directions rather than just left and right.
Picnic Calamity by XenosNS 2022-04-04T17:03:16Z ♥ 1
Nice game, music and sound effects are great! It can be pretty difficult. It seems like the cookies are a bit underpowered though, as they are limited and don't seem to appreciably lower the amount of ants you have to deal with.
Pellet by Austin Sierra 2022-04-04T16:55:21Z ♥ 1
Nice game! I love the concept. Music and sound effects are great. I think the game would benefit from having a smaller screen, as it seems a bit easy/takes too long to get difficult.
Help your Friend to escape the inevitable Ghost in a spooky Forest! by sorenGu 2022-04-04T16:51:28Z ♥ 2
Fun game. I like the graphics and the mood the game creates, especially with the lighting. It can be a bit hard to see where the pentagrams are at times though
Under Siege by lcrabbit 2022-04-04T16:41:36Z ♥ 1
Nice game! The music and sound effects are really good and I love the sound of the enemy settlements being attacked. I do wish you could buy in bulk though as it seems to take a lot of units to defeat the enemies.
Mightiest Minion by poopgames 2022-04-04T03:57:33Z ♥ 1
Cool idea. I like the graphics. I think it would be nice if movement was more traditional (move in the direction of the key you pressed).
The Final Day by Very Bad Bunny Studio 2022-04-04T03:52:09Z ♥ 1
Nice game! I like the concept, very Majora's Mask-ish. It seems like there is a lot of depth to it, though it can be a bit overwhelming at first.
a by mdnr 2022-04-04T03:44:18Z ♥ 1
I love how quaint the game is and the concept is innovative. Music is great too.
Immune System "Engineer" - Can you Delay the Inevitable Skin Breach? by Aarimous 2022-04-04T03:38:35Z ♥ 2
Cool concept and executed very well. I love the music created by the incoming cells, as well as other aspects of the sound design.
Chess? by dreamscale 2022-04-04T03:34:11Z ♥ 2
Nice game. I feel that there is a lot of depth to choosing pieces based around the paths of not only the enemies but your pieces as well. I think it would be nice if the pieces themselves were a bit more distinguished, as some look a bit samey.
The Great Flood by cassowary 2022-04-04T03:28:09Z ♥ 1
Excellent job. Graphics and audio are great, and combined with the text in each level creates a great atmosphere. Really makes you think about how to proceed in the optimal way.
Not Enough Time: The Game by Marianoa213 2022-04-04T03:22:24Z ♥ 2
Nice game - I like the sound design. Could be nice to have the cursor be bigger or pop out a bit more so it is more visible.
Brush it Up! by kory 2022-04-04T03:19:42Z ♥ 1
Very original idea and I love the shop upgrades mechanic. I think if your teeth look like that then you probably have bigger problems to worry about than cavities though. Haha
Don't Touch It! by KirKami 2022-04-04T03:16:01Z ♥ 1
Love what each person says and like the humor. Nice job
If you try hard enough, you can win. by Rxbbie 2022-04-04T02:50:47Z ♥ 2
Nice work, the game feels really polished and the sound design is great. Fun to play. I do wish the gun was closer to the character to allow for close-range enemy killing.
Boing & Bonk by Mistafixxa069 2022-04-04T02:46:25Z ♥ 1
Nice job! I like the sound design and the little things like how the score bounces when it updates.
5 More Minutes by Sam Horner 2022-04-04T00:53:28Z ♥ 1
Nice game, it can be very hectic. Each task by itself is pretty simple but difficult to manage when combined.
Stay alive by Eli Haun 2022-04-03T23:59:28Z ♥ 3
Nice! Simplistic gameplay but graphics, mood, and sound design are good. Adding sound effects could be a good improvement.
Hospital Dash by brads.space 2022-04-03T23:54:28Z ♥ 1
Nice game! I like the visuals, especially the buildings. Sensitivity feels a bit high and the camera is a little wonky, but otherwise fun.
